Claypaky plays host to Polytechnic University of Milan at Teatro Sociale in Bergamo

Again, this year, Claypaky played host to the students enrolled in the Master in Lighting Design and LED Technology, organized by the Polytechnic University of Milan. This course has long been devoted to nurturing the talents of aspiring young lighting professionals.

 

The Master aims to equip them with the skills they need for diverse applications such as entertainment venues, interior architecture, urban landscapes, museum exhibitions and temporary installations and residential spaces. The curriculum focuses on the analysis and synthesis of lighting design methods, covering conception, organization, and rigging.

 

Among the instructors who teach on the Master course is Italian lighting designer Giovanni Pinna, known for his work with artists like Vasco Rossi. Pinna runs the “Lighting Design for Entertainment” module, which includes practical workshops hosted by entertainment industry partners. This year, besides the expertise contributed by Alberico D’Amato, Alessandro Colangelo, and Marco Zucchinali, Claypaky also provided the venue of the historic Teatro Sociale in Bergamo, Italy.

 

Giovanni Pinna conducted a session of the Master’s course in this setting, attended by around thirty promising young lighting designers. During the workshop, Pinna explained programming techniques for lighting shows in detail, using an extensive rig consisting of Claypaky lights. “It was a unique opportunity for my students to gain real experience in a real venue with professional products, in a captivating setting”, he says. “Only the Polytechnic University’s master syllabus offers real-life lighting programming experience in a theatre.”

 

“The day-long session was dedicated to understanding the entire creative process behind crafting a light show, from listening to the song and writing the cue list, to dealing with the stage and transforming creativity, ideas, personality and taste into reality”, he continues. “It was a truly unique experience for all the students, who fully appreciated the opportunity Claypaky had given them to get first-hand experience of an unknown world to them.”
